Digispark attiny85 USB key

The Digispark attiny85 USB key is a super small Arduino compatible device that can be used for lots of different projects. This document and code helps you set one up as a virtual keyboard that will send characters of your choice to the host system.

You can buy one on eBay for around ~$2 USD: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=digispark+attiny85+usb

Arduino USB keyboard code

keyboard.ino is a Arduino sketch that I made for auto-navigating a MacOS host system. The idea is that you plug this into an unlocked computer that you find around the office. On the version of OSX that I use, the key will bring up Outlook and write an email to get you a free lunch. Obviously, you could do something much more aggressive, like download code or create a reverse shell. This is similar to the USB rubber ducky attack.

Installation steps

• Install the Arduino IDE
• Install the Digispark board addon

Apple keyboard spoof

The USB Arduino will pop up as a "new keyboard" after you plug it in. To avoid this you need to change the USB driver to make the Arduino appear to be a legit Apple keyboard by duplicating the device ID. I've modified usbconfig.h to fix this. Put it into /Users/<your username>/Library/Arduino15/packages/digistump/hardware/avr/1.6.7/libraries/DigisparkKeyboard/ (Note: The file path may change based on software versions in the path) and when you compile and load the code onto your Arduino, it should fix this problem. The changes in usbconfig.h should make your Arduino clone appear to be an authentic Apple keyboard. If you get stuck, try this link for more info on how to change this.

Caveat on MacBook Pros

The tiny USB key sized Digispark devices are occasionally too short to make proper contact in the port. I tried to dremel out the key to make it insert better without much success. It might be better to use a short USB extension cable instead.
